The 5 Greatest ever Belgian Footballers While often underappreciated due to a lack of major international honours, Belgium is still widely renowned for the amount of talent it produces on a regular basis. But who are Belgium’s greatest players?

Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

With the FIFA World Cup in full swing, many European soccer teams are having a short break during this time. This break period allows teams to build their strategies, work with their conditioning elements and enables the players not playing for their national teams to recover from their demanding schedule.

This is the tale of an invention rendered ineffective because of corporate greed. Strictly speaking, it’s not a physical education issue, but it does affect any teacher who packs a lunch for school or team trips. What invention am I talking about? Plastic food storage containers. I’m the king of leftovers. I eat them for most lunches. And when I pack for team trips, I usually pack my travel munchies in a plastic storage container so they don’t get scrunched.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

However, we can't help thinking about our educational practices even when we are supposed to be resting. For our classroom teachers, it is conference time, which allows us time to reflect on our students and our own instruction.

Words can ignite certain feelings in us. These feelings are usually connected to experiences we’ve had at some point in our lives. For instance, the word family may mean something totally different to two people, depending upon each individual’s experiences. Movement is defined as changing the position of one’s body parts relative to each other. Physical activity is defined as intentional voluntary movement directed toward achieving a goal.

Emerging research has been exploring the relationship between vascular health, certain botanicals, and the endothelial glycocalyx (EGX). The EGX is the first line of defense in the vessel walls. It is a thin gel-like layer that lines the endothelium — the layer of vessel walls that separates the tissue from the circulating blood. Every artery, vein, and capillary is lined with the EGX, which consists of a mesh of glycoproteins , proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, and plasma proteins.
